Is my roost to high?

[hlhutchinson]

Is the roost to close to the ceiling? They can stand up without touching the top but are very close to it
I'm worried about winter them being to close and condensation from them breathing...

It does seem a little close to the roof, imo.

 

[andreanar]

Yes.

And a lil close to the vents. Should be fine in the wormer months, but they'll get chilled in winter. I'd put the perches about 18" below the vents in the winter.

That's a Window that will cover in winter our vents are in the rafters
But to make it 18" below the vents then yep I'll beep to lower it

Yes, it's too close to the roof...how far to lower it may depend on how tall coop is inside.

Lower roost chicken approved
